I sing the body electric. 
I'm dazzled by the promise of a greater tomorrow. I'm dizzied by the awareness of my own consciousness. 
My body is merely a container for the soul that begs to be removed from its restrictions, for it is imprisoned within fragile bones and tender flesh. 
It sings the body electric.
A melody that resembles a plea before slowly releasing a sigh in defeat against its enclosure. 
It yearns from something better than what is offered in such a short span of time.
Life is short, they claim but life is indeed long.
Long and harsh, the road ahead.
We travel forward singing the body electric.
